(that no’ nice :))

Simon & Garfunkel Chicken  
Chicken Parts, (legs or thighs work best)  
Red or blush wine  
soy sauce  
garlic powder  
onion  
green pepper  
3/4 C shredded cheese  
tomato  
Parsley sage, rosemary & thyme (or whatever herbs you like)

Marinate chicken pieces in Wine\*, soy sauce and garlic (score or tenderize them first) (best for at least a few hours. If you can’t the will still pick up some of the marinade flavor. you can also marinate overnight) Saute them in the marinade and add what herbs you like\*\*. (they should be white on both sides but not done in the middle) Remove from pan, and place in baking dish. Rough chop a whole onion & green pepper & cook in marinade until cooked down. Pour on top of chicken. Bake for 35 mins. Add favorite shredded cheese\*\*\*, back in the oven for 15 mins. Add 1 totato on top; diced fresh. Bake 5 more mins.. This is my absolute favorite way to do chicken.

- I normally use White Zinfindel,  
\*\*\* Mexican shredded works well for this
